What is body contouring?


When you try to lose weight through exercise and diet, you may only get so far. The location of fat pockets within the body determines how each patient responds to weight loss. There are some patients who lose significant amounts of body fat from the abdomen, while there are others who lose more fat from their thighs and buttocks.

There are several types of body contouring recommended to address pockets of fat around the body that do not respond to exercise and diet. In body lifts, loose skin or flesh around the body is tightened, particularly around the lower back, buttocks, and thighs. When it comes to body contouring there are non-invasive and surgical options to help patients achieve transformative results.

Is body contouring the same as a tummy tuck?


There are many different procedures under the umbrella of body contouring. A tummy tuck is one option for patients wishing to target stubborn fat in certain areas.

The tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a procedure that reduces excess fat and skin on the abdomen, but unlike a body lift, also strengthens the abdominal muscles. Diet and exercise alone may not have been enough for you to achieve those firm abs you desire. It is possible to benefit from a tummy tuck if you have excess or sagging abdominal skin as a result of pregnancy. Keeping a healthy lifestyle and avoiding weight fluctuations are essential for maintaining the best results from your tummy tuck.

Tummy tucks are performed under general anesthesia, with horizontal incisions created on the abdominal area, and the excess skin is then removed. It is then necessary to repair the underlying abdominal muscles once the skin has been lifted. It may be necessary to make a second incision around the naval depending on how much skin you have, particularly in the upper ab area. Sutures, skin adhesives, tapes, or clips will be used by the plastic surgeon to close the incisions. You will be able to confidently display your flatter and firmer abs within a week or two after surgery.

What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of body contouring?


The specific pros and cons of body contouring will vary between the different treatment options and will be discussed with you during your consultation at NewYouMD, Medical Spa. When it comes to the non-invasive options available at NewYouMD, Medical Spa, the lack of downtime or scarring is a benefit in and of itself. And despite the treatments being nonsurgical in nature they can still produce transformative results. The results, however, may take some time to fully reveal themselves. It is not going to be an overnight change in most cases. Furthermore, body sculpting is not a solution for patients looking to lose a considerable amount of weight, rather it is meant to target stubborn pockets of fat.

For this reason, the procedures are also not for everyone, the ideal body contouring candidate is close to their ideal weight and is simply looking to make cosmetic changes rather than lose significant weight.

How many sessions of body contouring will be necessary?


How many sessions you will need for body contouring will be influenced by various factors including the type of treatment you are receiving and the desired extent of the results.

Using radiofrequency lipolysis or ultrasound lipolysis, NewYouMD, Medical Spa breaks down fat cell walls and releases their contents. Ultrasound energy sends rapid pressure fluctuations deep into the layers of the skin, killing fat cells without damaging surrounding tissue. To maintain long-term results, it is crucial to maintain a healthy lifestyle, even though fat cells are permanently destroyed. Based on the areas being treated, patients usually need one to three radiofrequency/ultrasound treatments spaced two weeks apart.
